| Don't smoke!|

Both Khan daughter and mother reached Junaid Manzil, Maira was bubbling in anger. Whereas, Sheza was following her like a bunny toward her precious carrots.

Sheza's cuteness was embodied in her wide, innocent eyes that sparkled with a sense of wonder. Her petite stature and playful demeanor made her seem like a gentle, loyal companion, much like a devoted puppy. She exuded an aura of sweetness and curiosity.

Maira, on the other hand, carried an air of darkness and intensity. Her eyes were deep and piercing, radiating a sense of danger and a no-nonsense attitude. Her presence was commanding and intimidating, as if she held the power to unleash formidable forces if provoked.

Both women carried different Aura.

Both were in the living room, The mafia guard came with an imposing figure, his bulk filling the room. He had a rugged, weathered appearance, with a closely shaved head and a thick beard. He was dressed in a dark, well-fitted suit that accentuated his formidable frame. In his massive hand, he held a menacingly large gun. His voice was deep and gruff, befitting his role as a loyal enforcer of the criminal underworld.

"Mrs Junaid, where should we put all the shoppers?"

Maira's cold, deep voice cut through the room as she turned her gaze toward Sheza.

"Do you wanna arrange yourself or should I tell maids?"

Sheza found herself shooking her head as no and said in a small squeaky voice.

"I will do myself,"

Maira turned her dark gaze toward the guard and asserted with authority.

"Tell the maids to arrange her closet," With that, Maira left, not affording Sheza a chance to protest or say anything. Sheza was left dumbfounded, as first, Maira had asked her, and then, she had acted decisively, leaving no room for further discussion.

The guard also left the scene, and then four maids arrived, each carrying numerous shopping bags in their hands. They greeted Sheza with a bow and proceeded to head upstairs with the bags in row, ready to attend to their duties.

Sheza decided to upstairs as well, as she was walking, she felt a presence behind her, so she turned and saw Wahaj standing behind her about two meters away.

Sheza turned again and started walking, Wahaj also followed, and then she turned to him and said while hesitating.

"Um, C-can you please not follow me like that?"  she felt uncomfortable, because no other man has touched or talked to her other than Saad and her father Kabir.

"But, Milady, I am your personal bodyguard,"
He said.

Sheza contemplated the situation, her delicate features softened into a thoughtful expression. Her innocence and charm were evident in the way her eyes sparkled with curiosity, like a child pondering a new discovery. A gentle smile played on her lips, and she said in a gentle tone.

"Could you please follow me from far away? it's uncomfortable," Wahaj nodded and then she started walking toward the room again, she glanced behind but didn't see Wahaj, she sighed in relief and fasten her pace and then finally attained to the room.

Sheza's entry into the room was marked by her curious and adorable presence. Her big Bambi eyes widened in awe as she took in the scene before her, her childlike wonder evident as she explored the room. She moved with a certain grace, her innocence juxtaposed against the busy maids labouring diligently.

Then her Bambi big eyes met with his Green dark orbs, sending a series of shivers down her spine. Sitting on the couch in a commanding and mafia-style manner, the man exuded dominance. His legs were spread wide, and he was casually holding a cigarette between his right-hand index and middle fingers. The smoke from the cigarette curled around him.

Her face twined in disgust at the smell of cigarettes and alcohol in the room, Her hatred for smoking and alcohol was deep-seated, stemming from the traumatic experiences of her childhood. She despised these substances not only for their foul odor but also for the pain and suffering they had brought into her life. The mere presence of them in the room brought back painful memories.

The memories of her father's daily drinking and smoking habits, along with the ensuing violence, were haunting. Sheza had witnessed the worst side of her father when he drank, and she remembered how he would turn into a monster, especially targeting her for no apparent reason.

"My little pigeon, come inside!"Saad said in a dark cold voice. his words were delivered in a dark and cold voice.

Sheza, intimidated by the man's dark voice, approached him with cautious and slow movements. She stood in front of him, her head hung low, and her gaze fixed on the floor in fear as the memories still revolved in her mind.

A sudden pull disrupted her balance, causing Sheza to land unceremoniously on the man's lap. She let out a startled yelp and instinctively reached out, gripping his broad shoulders for support, her eyes wide with surprise and uncertainty.

"Do You know, How cute you look in my clothes?" In his husky, deep voice, he uttered words that sent shivers down her spine. With a gentle touch, he traced her cheeks with the back of his hand, following a seductive and captivating path from her temple down to her chin.

As he brought the smoking stick to his lips and took a drag, then exhaled the smoke towards her, Sheza's sensitivity brims as she coughed loudly and hurriedly covered her nose and mouth, struggling to cope with the acrid and choking sensation brought on by the smoke.

"P-please, t-throw t-this a-away," Her big, innocent puppy eyes held a captivating power over him, stirring an unexpected emotion deep within. He found himself inexplicably drawn to those pleading, vulnerable eyes, and his own hands moved almost instinctively.

Without his conscious awareness, he threw the cigarette away into the ashtray, demonstrating the profound impact her gaze had on him, softening his demeanor and momentarily breaking through his hardened exterior.

"Anything else?" As he whispered, the daze from the impact of her puppy eyes still seemed to linger within him. His gaze, though typically commanding, now held a subtle softness and uncertainty. It was as if he couldn't quite shake off the effect of her innocence

"Yeah," "What"

"Brush your teeth!" Her exclamation marked a sudden and noticeable shift in her persona. The fear and submission she had displayed earlier gave way to a moment of playful ambush. Sheza's voice and demeanour transformed, revealing a spark of cutenes.

Saad immediately looked at her in disbelief and with an eyebrow raised, asked.

"What the hell!"

"You smell like cigarettes and alcohol, and that smell to the core!" Even as Sheza made a disgustingly cute face in response to the smell of cigarette smoke, her inherent cuteness shone through. Her expressive features contorted into an adorable expression of distaste, her delicate features forming an endearing pout.

"Also, it will be a rule that neither you are allowed to smoke in this room nor outside, okay?" Saad rolled his eyes and said.

"Okay, my angry pigeon,"

With a sarcastic and salty expression, he stood up, lifting Sheza in his arms in a bridal style. Sheza let out a surprised squeak but immediately wrapped her arms around his neck, her trust in him evident as she clung to him securely.

"W-what are you doing, p-put me down!"

He smirked evilly and dropped her on the couch and went toward the bathroom. Sheza pouted and sit comfortably on the couch.

After some time, the maids came out of the closet in a straight line, with their gaze low and submissive and head hung down and stood in front of Sheza and said.

"Mrs Khan, we have arranged your clothes and other things in the closet, anything else you want?"

"Umm, no I don't want anything, Thank you for the help," Sheza being a soft-spoken person replied to her in a soft polite tone.

Upon hearing her response, all of the maids bowed ninety degrees to Sheza and then exited the room. Following their departure, Saad walked towards her with heavy footsteps, and Sheza, showing respect and readiness, stood in front of him.

"I want to give you something," Sheza took out the golden and black cards from her hoodie's pocket given by her father-in-law and extended them toward him. He gazed at her with a hint of confusio and enquired.

"Father gave you this, why are giving it to me?"

Sheza, in response, looked at him with her big puppy eyes and said.

"I don't know what to do with this, so you should keep it safely," Saad sighed took the card and went to put them in his closet, then, he came back and saw Sheza's habit of zoning out, lost in her own world.

Saad smirked darkly with a teasing glint in his green orbs, he effortlessly lifted her by gripping her small waist tightly then, he pulled her closer and left a gentle peck on her forehead and in his deep, husky voice said.

"You are too adorable, My begum,"
